Answer 1

Answer:

Letter D is correct. Public knowledge test.

Explanation:

The ethics test to make your decision was the public knowledge test. According to studies, a person judges the consequences of taking an unethical attitude using a sequential and rational approach. There are a sequence of judgments which are: moral rules, defense testing, ethical principles, and anticipatory high evaluation.
